does this bulb truly throw off a warm yellow vs white glow? I have cobalt blue pendant lights and everything I have tried so far still is stark white

Not the hotter color that is sometimes described as daylight this is a cooler temp and is closer to the yellow of an ordinary incandescent but still it is LED, I used in outdoor fixtures and have for some years now, not the bluer white, note most bulbs are not the bluer hotter K light, just went through that with some other bulbs I bought at HD for lamps, the 6000K daylight bulbs are whiter than coolwhite etc. I would say these bulbs more like cool white, meaning a bit more yellow. The temp range should be good indication of what to expect, 3000-4000 is more yellow, up near 6000 is hotter and more bluewhite.

I loved this bulb when infirst got it but I have a few problems now. If you get the 2700K warmth it does get close to the yellow light of an incandescent bulb. My biggest issues are these 1. They are not all the same color. They have slightly different shades. This is common among LED bulbs. Difficult to notice differences when they are in lamps but when they are in a light fixture spaced inches apart it's evident. If recommend getting a few extra and returning the ones that don't match the others. 2. Mine buzz (only in my pendant like fixture) I changed the dinner but still buzzed)3. As they age: 1 out of 8 have died and 2 have gotten dimmer than the others. I loved this bulb when infirst got it but I have a few problems now.

To my eye it looks just like the light from an incandescent bulb. I can't speak to how it looks if it's dimmed, because the table lamp I have it in does not have a dimmer.

My bulbs throw off a warm soft yellow light. I use them as lighting from dusk to dawn outside the garage side of my home. The amount of light is more than adequate to be seen from 200 feet. They replaced 65 watt traffic light bulbs and are actually brighter. EK

It is not a warm white. It does not have the somewhat yellow tint of the standard bulb.

Personally I think these give off an artificial yellowy tinted light. I would suggest going with a different bulb if you're looking for a natural quality to the light it produces.

Be carefull. These bulbs are yellow, not white or blue. I threw mine out after one day.

Not sure if I understand the "daylight bulb" term. My bulb is energy efficient and the light is what I'd call 'white' versus the 'yellow' that is given off from the old round style bulbs. I use this lighting at my home desk and it works very well for me.

If you want a bulb that is close to the standard yellowish incandescant light "Warm White" is what you want like these here. If you want the bluish/white fluorescant look then you want "Cool white".... I run strickly warm white because cool white is just too bluish/ghostly to me

It's a white light. How white? All I can say is it's not yellowish, not 2700 k. It's 3000 k and above. I have no idea about the CRI. I returned it because it was not bright enough for me.

Are you asking for the Kelvin color or for the Lumens? Neither is listed on the package, but the light is warm white is probably around 4000K (not too warm). The lumens are low and equivalent to a 40W bulb.

When it says warm white its just looks White but shines and just like a regular light bulb you just can't see the Center shine through the Plastic like you could do the clear glass of a light bulb but it shines brighter and the shine is not compromise color wise

Hi Sandy - I have this light - works great, can select RGB colour combination you want by using the on/off switch (easily) - I love the cobalt blue fading to sky blue and back (there are 18 colour settings/fades). Not sure what your question is, though! Uses 17.5 Watts instead of 300W, 12 volt, so I keep it on much more than the old light at a fraction of the environmental cost. Love it. There's a 512 led bulb too, but my 40ftx26ft pool is well lit with the 256. Hope that helps.

While still "warm white," they are slightly cooler than the traditional incandescent bulbs. I would estimate about 3000K vs. the usual 2700K. However they are not in the "daylight" category (6000K). You might notice a slight difference if you mixed bulb types.

the bulb pictured here casts a white light. i have never heard of this type pf bulb in colors

At 3000K, this bulb is closer to pure white light than 2700K bulbs, but it still maintains a warm appearance. Anything above 3500K will start to appear slightly blue. At 4500K, you will definitely notice a more blue hue.

There are 2 pictures that are shown -- the detail photo looks really yellow and warm, the thumbnail I see when writing this review looks pretty much white. My lamp is definitely more white than warm and yellow. However, I would say it is a soft neutral white, not a harsh "bluish" white like some LEDs you see. My decor is mostly warmer colors and this light works well.

Standard bulbs generally have a warm yellow tone, not this. This thing produces VERY bright white light. It will give your room a completely different look. We have one in our hallway and it's way too much for such a small area.

No because it don't affect other usersIt shine like the regular halogen the only difference one is yellow the other is white.also when you start using it you might not used high beam

I'm not sure what the temperature is but a subjective answe is its whiter than a standard incandescent bulb but warmer than a daylight bulb. Personally I prefer the color to the slightly oranger incandescents.
